HIS TO OWN
"Long enough to think he'd changed every time he promised he would. Long enough to let him destroy my self-respect piece by piece."

"Could've fooled me. I mean, I stayed with a cheating asshole for five years, then married another asshole for money and revenge. Not exactly screaming 'intelligent life choices.'"
"I'm not a cheater," he said quietly.
"No, you're just emotionally unavailable, controlling, and occasionally terrifying." I pulled my hand back, suddenly too aware of how close he was. "But hey, at least you're honest about being an asshole. That's something."
